Writing the bid

Writing the bid

The Graduate Research School is currently putting together a series of guidance documents on how to write a successful research funding proposal utilising:  the expertise of staff at Worcester who have recent experience of applying, successfully or otherwise, for research funding; feedback from funding bodies given to these staff; and the various guides produced by the funders themselves. The Graduate Research School will also be running a programme of Staff Development Sessions on research funding, including sessions on writing a proposal.  Up-to-date details can be found here. In the meantime, below are a few links to guides provided by the Funders themselves:

• AHRC How to Make a Successful Research Grant Bid
• EPSRC Advice on Writing Proposals
• ESRC Guidance Notes
• Joseph Rowntree Foundation - How to write a good proposal
